28. The Dallas Cowboys.

Honsestly, we only need that one reason. I also propose that if Texas is forced out of the United States, all Cowboys fans should go with the state; including, but not limited to, all of the jackasses who are born and bred Philadelphians who happen to be Cowboys fans.

Spare a thought for the poor cheerleaders. If they want, I could help them out with a british passport.

So let's talk brass tacks. I'm assuming this is what you look like:

At least, that is how henceforth I shall always envision thee.

Would you be willing to take a federal subsidy to convert your operation to bison over cattle? Keep in mind, there are federal subsidies for corn, among other farmed products. I propose that the impact on the nation both in the quality of the meat and the environmental impact that cattle currently make outweighs the cost to the investor (the United States).

Also, do not forget, number 29:

29. Jerry Jones, Owner, Dallas Cowboys

Hm... excellent point. We can pull the secession at an away game and give them asylum.

Masterful.

If they want to leave and you don't want them to stay, what's the problem here? Why not let them secede, then invade them for the oil. That way you don't have to stump up for the ridiculously priced healthcare you're about to dish out. Surely waging war is cheaper than that, right? ;)

Well, what we'd want to do is declare that Texas has WMDs. However, our real reason for going to war is to "cause chaos in the region, thereby driving up oil prices for oil companies." We don't want to actually take the oil, that would be too easy.

This plan brought to you (apparently) by the people who think that's what the US did in the Iraq War... you know, in case my reference was too vague.

7. Buffalo is much lower impact and more healthy than beef, and it's easy to raise anywhere in the nation.


My turn! More reasons for Texas to secede:

Texas has around 25% of the USAs remaining oil reserves (approx. 129 billion barrels) Texas produces(07 stats) around 1 million barrels a day. If we secede, we don't have to share with limpdave and his ilk!.

Texas is the #1 refining state, some 4.5 million barrels per day, more than 25% of the nations total. We could charge the shit out of wimpdave and his buddies to refine their oil.

We would no longer have an illegal immigration problem. We would provide them with economical transportation to the new border and let them sneak into simpdaves territory! (Hell, we could provide them with maps!!)

And the buffalo thing just cracks my ass up! It proves that gimpdave is not the sharpest knife in the kitchen! It is true that they are tough animals and can be raised in most areas of the country, but they are also extremely difficult to confine. If a buffalo wants to go, ain't no wire or wood fence gonna slow him down!!

But you just keep throwing your 2 cents out there, oh flaccid one, I can use the laughs!!

Because its so polluted from all the oil refining going on there.
